#like I wonder genius

[boag]

Whenever a swiftie tries to talk to me abt how great a songwriter Taylor Swift is I think abt these tiktok comments

#like no wonder they think she’s such a genius… #performing a surface-level analysis of an extremely simple lyric blows their minds #like I’m sorry I think y’all are just dumb 💀

[lordandladywhistledown]

Okay this shot of Colin is giving me the vibes of this little part of their first night together:

He's figured out that he loves her before this moment but he's just feeling so much that he also can't believe it's all because of Penelope, his lifelong friend who he didn't even see any other way before this season. He's like: "What the fuck and how the fuck are you making me feel these things" and I LOVE IT

He also looks like he was crying (or maybe that's just me) but that would also bring the whole scene on another level

#that little wonder in his face is absolutely incredible #i've said it once and i'll say it again #luke newton is an absolute genius #his micro-expressions make the whole scene so much better #cause its clear he's not just hot for pen in that moment #he's also like wow i love you so much and im not even sure how that happened #polin #bridgerton #bridgerton season 3 #bridgerton s3 #luke newton #nicola coughlan #bridgerton 3 #colin bridgerton #penelope featherington

was just thinking about how amazing it is that weird wonderful world and ghost files exist at the same time from the same company. you have the same minds, the same hosts, the same team and yet the shows are like day and night. www reminds us of the wonder and whimsy and joy all around us while ghost files showcases the world's darker side in its tragedies and horrors. and that they're able to execute both shows each with its own finely-tuned aesthetic and its own little universe is really a beautiful display of how much Talent and Love exists at watcher and it's so so special.

#i just picked out these two shows but the same could be said for so many others. that they even have so many to choose from is incredible. #really the show/season format of watcher is genius and they are so smart for thinking of that. #it lets them have so much variety in their content without getting themselves trapped in a box like they were at bf. #they can still hold onto the Ghoul Boys Spooky Vibe but also let their more lighthearted and wholesome sides show. #to borrow from miles. they are both spooky And cookie. #and it's cool to see other channels like the try guys pick up on the success of that and build it into their own channels in a way that's #not too different from what they were doing before. #grateful for it all. i love them and i love this community so much and i'm soso excited to see where we all go next. #watcher #weird wonderful world #ghost files #ahtw #ri.txt

watching a ship become so popular in a fandom when u r literally unable to see it as anything other than sibling coded is actually so painful

#like no hate to anyone who ships those everyone is entitled to their opinions/ships #but its like all the content is being made in a romantic light and im like no understanding it lmao #in case anyone is wondering what ships im thinking about #hotchniss #moreid #criminal minds #marvey #suits #royjamie #ted lasso #like i could maybe get royjamie considering the keeley context in the second half of season 3 #but marvey and moried??? cocky older brother and genius little brother #and u cant convince me otherwise #also hotchniss?? like thats a lesbian #emily prentiss cannot be into men i just dont get it #emily prentiss #aaron hotchner #derek morgan #spencer reid #harvey specter #mike ross #jamie tartt #roy kent

the tlh gang pretending to miss the portal to Idris from dark London because they were chasing after a dog that runs away at the very last crucial moment is so typically childish shenanigans of them

[incorrect-ikevamp-quotes]

I need to scream about this event (Friends Like These) because I truly was just. Not expecting the impact it would have--I don't remember if I read this one in Japanese???

I've only gotten the first two stories so far but I just.

Jeanne and Mozart are of course, as adorable as ever; there's no question about that. But Jeanne dropping this line:

"It galls me to sound so much like le Comte, but I am grateful to God that I met you."

I. [prolonged error 404 sounds]. I'm not sure there are words to convey the simultaneous endless wheezing laughter but also AWWWWWWWW energy that consumed me in milliseconds. Wildly oscillating between "LMFAO ah yes, sentimentality? Disgusting I'll drink to that (blasts Bring Me To Life)" and "BECAUSE YOU LOVE HIM DEEP DOWN AND HE LOVES YOU WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH."

I just can't get over how Jeanne says exactly one thing about liking another person and he's like, 'ew dad gave me cooties >:///// how dare he subject me to the mortifying ordeal of hope.' Jeanne I love you. Jeanne I would die for you. Middle schooler with well-meaning stepfather who begrudgingly accepts his kindness and grows for the better, but would rather perish than admit it. I never knew I needed this found family dynamic so freaking bad until I started playing this game. 11/10 I could watch this forever

More Shenanigans below the cut, + the Shakespeare and Comte Event Story:

Also a sidebar because I just can't help myself, I know I've talked about it before but: Mozart and Jeanne's friendship is so endlessly precious to me????? I love how Mozart is so NO I'M NOT NICE REEEEE (turtles) and Jeanne is like :> bestie. It's so damn cute watching Mozart squirm at being exposed for being sweet and Jeanne just truly grateful someone cares about him?????? How much Jeanne and MC dote on Mozart despite being together, how it only strengthens their friendship? Literally I'm over the moon, nobody touch me I'm tender!!! Jeanne deserves to live peacefully without being a tool of the state/bad actors!!!! Mozart deserves to be loved and happy without being defined by his musical success!!!!!

LIKE. Not to be dramatic but I could watch an entire saga of these two being friends and being adorable. Fresh serotonin every single time. Did I know Jeanne was going to share his food? Absolutely. Did I expect MC to think ahead and pack two lunches? Absolutely not. Was I delighted both times? Beyond what you can imagine!!!!!!!

I'm going to stop here at the risk of repeating myself over and over but wow. Jeanne's capacity to see to the very core of people, for better and worse, and how it lets Mozart be meaningfully seen. Mozart's recognition that Jeanne can mean well to a fault, worried that he might be taken advantage of--and how Jeanne can build trust with someone for the first time without being afraid. Can you hear me wailing and bawling

Naturally, I acquired the Comte and Shakespeare one next. Now, I'm gonna be honest, I saw their names together and went "oh dear God. What am I walking into. Why do I hear boss music????" But I gathered my courage (more like I'm just too feral not to gather info abt Comte, but I digress) and experienced something that left me literally on the floor because I just. Did Not Remotely Expect This Series of Events.

So like. It starts off by being pretty normal and cute and I'm like awwww baby boy (oh he's a little fked up actually) giving gifts to dad. I'm sensing an ulterior motive but right now just let me have this. Also adorable that Comte is struck dumb by it, that's really cute I'm taking notes. And then. I was hit with the veritable ANVIL that was these next few lines:

deep breath Okay. Where to begin.

I LOST IT at the implication that Will was like. Holding back from ending Comte's entire life with mere words. WILL????? WILL P L S??????? (lowkey wanted to hear the roast snickers) Why am I sensing a pattern that Comte loves spicy people??? Love this for me

I also started losing my shit the second MC was mentioned and you could just hear the record scratch/kill bill sirens. Comte really out here like "son say WHAT about MC." I can't get over how he's always so ready to throw down for both MC and Sebas at any moment. Anywho, naturally I come to the conclusion that Will was just trying to one-up Comte to mess with him by giving MC gifts. It was the one thing I did anticipate--and, fool that I was--thought it rendered me safe from what happens next.

DEAR READER. DEAR READER I WAS SO WRONG. I WAS SO TERRIBLY WRONG.

BABY GIRL. BABY GIRL ON WHAT LEVEL IS THIS NORMAL BEHAVIOR. I'M LITERALLY CRYING RN?????? THE FACT THAT I CAN'T TELL IF HE'S JUST BEING SILLY GOOFY OR HE LEGITIMATELY MEANS IT OR SOME COMBINATION OF THE TWO????????

Mans out here like "I lost everything in the war (literally) let me spoil my girlboss dream gf in peace. Vlad took everything in the divorce let me have this pls." I just. The mental image of him chasing Will around the house. The potential implications of him doing this to protect them both (I love you Will but you have. Problems). The HILARIOUS AND DUBIOUS qualifier when he says "dressing up MC is nearly my entire reason for living." Comte I love you more than life itself but that does not make this any more normal. What are you doing my beloved vampire jkhlhalfdhjfg 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Also an honorable mention moment, because it was endearing:

Just the img of him wandering around with sparkly eyes and toting home little trinkets for everyone??????? He's so cute, that's the most grandpa behavior I've ever seen. I was chortling when Will was like "sir you made me sit in that cluttered carriage followed by another carriage full of stuff all the way home IT'S TIME FOR REVENGE (affectionate)."

I also love how Comte is like "Do I have a problem? Maybe. Will that stop me? Only when the sun cataclysmically swallows the earth."

Literally half of the members of the house are like "why are you like this" and he just heeheehoos his way out of it. How does he keep getting away with it. Can you tell I love him. Dazai isn't the only clown in this house honks Comte's nose

#ikevamp #ikemen vampire #ikevamp comte #ikevamp saint germain #ikevamp mc #ikevamp mozart #ikevamp jeanne #ikevamp jean #ikevamp shakespeare #man every time i go back to ikevamp its like the first time #idk man the healing from intense trauma and catastrophic overworking just gets to me okay #i wonder if there's just a fundamental ethos to the game that compels me; the idea that genius of any kind is hard-won #that no matter how brilliant someone may seem--there was a cost that may not be apparent at first glance #but they are also just. silly silly guys. mischievous little creachurs #THE DUALITY OF MAN (VAMPIRE?) #im also just endlessly amused by comte's whole “IM NOT UR DAD” #but at the same time him being like “relating to my children emotionally? how about I Give Them This Thing They Like Instead.” #like comte ilysm but that is literally. textbook dad behavior. 0/10 you failed the stealth check #its my comte roasting hours #at the same time trying very hard not to think about the reasons why #namely that he doesn't want to burden everyone with Vlad's beef^TM #i can't help but think about how much keeping his distance is abt protecting them from himself as well #the way he doesn't want to be a burden on anyone else but also yearns so deeply for companionship/connection #how even with mc he frequently notes what she's giving up to be with him/that he's more work than he's worth #:( i wanna hold him my poor sweet mans

I have watched Red, White and Royal Blue twice now and i'm past that scene on the book so nothing can convince me that Henry didn't invite Alex to the polo match just so he could show off his riding abilities if you know what I'm talking about

#rwrb #red white and royal blue #when they zoomed in on henry's ass i was like ohhh i see what he's doing #that's genius. invite your crush to fly to fuck knows where i dont care in england just to watch your pretty ass bounce on that saddle #henry's a power bottom and he's got alex completely wrapped around his finger. king shit if you ask me #he had One Very Specific Goal in mind #he thought he was being soooo subtle but come on. come on #henry: i'm throwing hints that i'm a great dick rider #i have a thousand dick puns i can keep going #i wonder if my take was obvious to everyone else but i've had this in my mind for while after watching the movie #and i laugh every time i remember it

Its fun and easy to characterize the gang as dumbasses (and I love it) but !!! theyre also so smart !!! like, dumbass smart. Smart enough to get into princeton but also dumb enough to get a b in your own language (looking at you miles). Smart enough to make your own multiverse watch from scratch but also dumb enough to say "take a crap on the establishment i salute you" to a toddler (not that Hobie was wrong for saying bc he's right) Smart enough to be practically flawless and not even need to study but also dumb enough...just dumb enough. Pavitr is so dumb (in a good way).

Spidermen are kind of like jesters. They put on this goofy idiot persona but their minds are always a few steps ahead. I know it doesn't matter much but I see people portray the spider gang as academically unintelligent and like...that's just not them! Spiderman has always been that nerdy character who could and would ramble about advanced science bullshit if prompted!

Lots of dumbass bonding content but not as much "oh these little shits are also child geniuses" bonding content.

#spiderverse rambling #ignore me as i ramble more in tags #not that i dont think the “young superhero who is also a super genius” trope isnt played out bc it is #more straight up dumbasses in my comics please #buuuut ppl are writing them to be stupid and idk if thats the case #i think theyre closer to emotionally dumb but academically intelligent #miles morales #gwen stacy #pavitr prabhakar #hobie brown #miles in ITSV: ehh i mean school is a breeze but i dont really fuck with this shit #hobie: YES right on mate fuck the system #its pretty common for the spiders to be written as outcasts but i wonder what pavitrs social life is like #the scene where peters like “i know what sports are” and mj goes “mb u were such a nerd in hs” made me giggle #not art

[narcissusbrokenmirror]

when u think about it. Are we, humble jatp fans, really that different from Charlie and Madison, actors interpretating Julie and Luke for us, when we create and write fanfiction and they create Perfect Harmony?

like the first version of it is so damn different from the recorded version,its like a Julie and Luke thing we never saw, a different version of them. Its a different melody, different sounding, different lyrics, it's like Charlie and Madi were creating a different story for Julie and Luke through their music.

imagine if that version with more deepness was something that Luke tried writing on the 90's but he never finished bc he wasn't good at writing romantic ballads and his bandmates weren't exactly romance inspo, so he gave it up and never touched it again, focusing on other songs. And then 25 years later Julie creates the same song in her head. Like she never read it anywhere, she just created it. Like its fate for them. Let's say she ends up showing it to him — not as a song she made thinking of him, but something she wanted to try for the band, and he looks at it and is like that one song he made back when he was alive, and couldn't find the perfect ending of it.

I can go on a rant here and create a scenario where they are singing the song but it becomes a different scenario (like og perfect harmony) and is from Luke's pov this time, and they are singing together on stage but as if he was alive in the 90's, Julie would be wearing a 90's outfit and there would be lights to them, as the ending comes near, the audience and their bandmates disappear and is just them, singing it to each other.

also check out the lyrics this is perfect alright why isnt fanfic of this moment (the fic is the song already) (I'm gonna put it under a read more to reduce the post)

Step into my world,

bittersweet love story with this girl

shook me to the core

voice like an angel,

I've never heard before

Moved into the city,

shreds that guitar like I've never seen,

life can be so mean,

at least I know that he'll never leave

The other side is breaking through,

two worlds collide when I'm with you

voices come to life

why must we lie that we're

the perfect harmony

the perfect harmony

I feel the rhythm through my skin

souls collide from within

love me for who I am

The best of stories never bend

Chemistry that shines so bright

you brought music back to my life

heaven on earth is how it feels

the perfect harmony

the perfect harmony

the other side is breaking through,

two worlds collide when I'm with you

voices come to life

why must we lie that we're

the perfect harmony

the perfect harmony

we say we're friends, we play pretend

you're more to me

we create the perfect harmony

#julie and the phantoms #luke patterson #julie molina #this was like a shower thought i had #the original version is so different that i wonder what charlie and madison were thinking when they wrote it #they re basically creating fanfiction #i ve seen people talking a perfect harmony song but from Luke's creation and that is genius but consider Luke having a literal version of i #and the fantasy scenario parallel where he imagines Julie that i also thinks its awesome we defo should get it

[valeriefauxnom]

I love how the two drawings of child Euden that we got (not counting his newborn baby art) give off strong "No thoughts head empty" blind happiness at the world and everyone in it!

Like look at him, he's adorable!

Imagine Aurelius keeping a careful eye on him growing up when he first starts developing his personality just in case all that demon flesh corrupts him but Euden is just eternally :D at everything in life that even he had to acknowledge 'okay I think this isn't a ruse the kid is just that ecstatic at everything'.

He gives me the vibes of the kind of kid that's always running around to explore the world and barely sitting still enough for someone to tie his little bow and then having to be rescued by adults before anything bad happened. Honestly it's half canon anyways with how he was explicitly the one to give Zethia so much practice for healing magic!

So yeah. Baby Euden seems to have been stuck with a :D face and nobody quite knew what to do with a potentially hyperactive kid who is just so full of happiness and love it's hard to even think about that happy ignorant bliss fading.

#dragalia lost #dragalia #euden #No wonder Emile liked him early on if that was the case: he's a huge ego boost for Emile! #Emile solves 4+7 for him and Euden at age 4 thinks he's a genius! #Is this all conjecture? Pretty much. But when vibes are all I have to go on go on them I shall!

i Also think sprace should be about spot falling in love despite himself and having a very hard time believing that race is in love with him back and race having a very hard time understanding why spot doesn't understand how amazing he is

#i think spot thinks he's the connecticut clark to race's malfina is what I'm saying lol #while race is like. this is my partner he is a genius a badass sooo funny soooo wonderful and so humble abt it for real #newsies #sprace #spot conlon #racetrack higgins

I was reading through the Webtoons (again) and remembered the scene/panel where Lime claims he caught Corona and Mochi tells him not to joke about that. My actual 2 questions are 1. Is Lime the type to have "Man Flu"? And 2. Out of the Coven (incl Taffy) whose best and dealing with being ill?

10000%. a few months ago (???) the idea came up that indeed lime in all his greatness, can tank physical and magic attacks and then walk away like its nothing, but then when tummy hurty suddenly hes out of commission for days on end. punch to the face??? nothing. got the sniffles???? hes gonna die.

this one is kinda interesting!!!! i dont think mochi gets sick often (and if she does, she can just magic heal it away so shes never dealt with it). i actually think taffy or coco would be the best at pushing through!!! coco has enough perseverance to be like "No. We have a history quiz today and I'm not missing it for shit." and will be that one student everyone hates that comes in when theyre sick and is hacking and coughing the whole time. and taffy just seems like the type to be like "Oh I'm sick? I didn't even notice. anyway." (at least pre-timeskip when life is so shitty that an additional sore body and stuffy nose is childs play)

#oscar is a normal sick person who sleeps for a day and is fine #lime is the fucking man flu one #i think last time we were talking about a really genius strategy would be to just poison his food a little bit to take him out #fucker wouldnt be able to fight for shit #i wonder if he also uses it as an excuse like (mochi im so cold....can you feed me--) #(i dont wanna get sick too.)

Higgs is actually good at making friends, isn't he? A few pages ago he made Violetta laugh, and there's his rather amusingly snarky friendship with Tarvek, and he is friendly with the multi-dimensional entity that's basically haunting him.... And now a bear? And they seem to have been talking for a little while? The bear is telling him about his life ambitions? I wonder if he'd also be good at making friends with normal people.

Edit, a while later :

Further proof of Higgs making friends with bears or perhaps one particular bear, I must admit they don't differ too much. This is hilarious tho.

#Dripping stardust #girl genius #axel higgs #You know it makes sense he'd be at ease around non-humans given his whole deal #I wonder if the bear is at ease with him because it can smell he's not human? #Higgs probably gets along with humanoid constructs rlly well what with the 'look like humans - as intelligent as humans - not humans' thing

[baylardian-1]

Moidrah and Philippa :)

i figure they'd have spent a few years working together aboard the same ship, the USS *working title*, while philippa's a commander and moidrah's her captain respectively. probably a science vessel, i figure it'd be a lot of like, working in quarantined planets to help prevent the spread of diseases, helping out in warzones with medical supplies and training, other science-y missions,,,,,,

i only have bits and pieces of ideas,,,,, like i had it in my mind that philippa's stuck in a lieutenant position for a while bc no one will risk taking her on as a commander,,,,, maybe it has to do with her hot-headed temper, or maybe it's because she'd entered the command track late so she's like, pretty unremarkable and inexperienced as a candidate. moidrah handpicks philippa to be her XO and no one, philippa included, can figure out why she'd take the risk.

im still kinda chewing on what their dynamic will be... like i think theyd bond over being genetically "different." rrrrgrhhg moidrah's difficult for me in that like she always has this hidden agenda involving augments and i think philippa having come from a similar upbringing as her captain would be the only one to see it. PRIOR TO THAT though i think philippa would try her darndest not to disappoint her captain so she plays more by the starfleet book for a while but she comes to find out they're both a little rule-bendy in an echo chamber, enabling each other in a way that MIGHT be a little bad lol. ;) but i think itd eventually serve to show philippa why they're supposed to be more STARFLEET CODE with things.

#i figure theyre a bunch of heggin NERDS on the vessel #wondering if maybe this would be the ship where she argues with the CMO A LOT #but i was also thinking that CMO would get killed ;) #JUST CRUMBS OF IDEAS RN NOT MUCH LOL #moidrah sees philippas severed barbel and is like 'omg shes just like me' *manipulates her* #idk i figure moidrah's a scientific genius like her mother.... WHAT science(s) idk haha vague like biology or something??? #xenobiologist maybs #good with anatomy #philippa's in the medical field... maybe thats her front-faced reason as to why she picks philippa for XO #or requests her haha. i dont think??? captains pick their XO's #My Art #Moidrah sh'Eraz #Philippa Janeway #OC #Andorian #Human #Star Trek: Voyager #Threshold #AU

can you draw molly and sylvie from epithet erased as a stufful and eevee? :)

yesyesyes why yes i can indeed!!!

here you are :DD thoughts thus far:

I think I kinda like Molly as a Stufful bc to me the ring on her head kinda makes it look like she's wearing her bear hoodie :o...... also it might be neat if she was a shiny Stufful... i feel like the colors would fit her a little better methinks

I love this concept dearly it's so fun to think about ehehehehe 😈 theres an extra Sylvie doodle down here too bc i had. an idea ↓

headcanon that he trips over his ribbon things constantly ajsgahg

also haven't drawn him yet but I just realized that Rick Shades would be Krookodile i think because it fits so so well helpp

#pokemon #epithet erased #ee #sylvester ashling #molly blyndeff #GENIUS!!!!!! #ooh thank u for these asks these are so fun to draw eeeheeee #?!?! the formatting messed up at first woh #also ik this would be like breaking the rules of pokemon but hypothetically. if they had differemt pokemon types #i think sylvie would be fairy-psychic giovanni would be grass-fire and molly would be normal type I think #and rick would be dark-water #hypothetically of course #i wonder if this would be like a pmd type thing too........ #idk #this is so much fun #potatart

Let’s take a moment to appreciate the body language in this scene: the rest of the team (minus Rossi) has an upright posture and their hands are placed on the desk in front of them. JJ, Emily and Hotch use a hand clasp gesture while Penelope and Derek opt for the ‘one hand over the other’ variation. These gestures generally display an attempt at self-restraint of some sort - mainly a reaction to frustration, anger or anxiety, and also indicate the intention of putting more distance between oneself and the other person(s) involved. Rossi uses what is known as the ‘steeple hands’ pose, an indication that he has a confident attitude or is very confident about the outcome of the situation and may also try to convey a feeling of superiority; the lowered steeple is usually observed when the steepler is listening, rather than speaking. But what about Spencer? His expression is defiant, he’s leaning back on his chair and he’s sitting in a ‘figure four leg lock’ stance... which, according to experts, is one of the most dominant positions someone can assume without manifesting openly aggressive intentions, since it also indicates that the subject feels both argumentative and defensive at the same time.

My man is basically throwing a tantrum during a Senate Committee hearing.
